Good, the carpetbagging label would have been the number 1 concern.

I'd support state AG Dana Nessel 100%!! πŸ’™πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²

Be great if Nessel was our candidate and we got Pappas in NH, too. They’d be a great outlet for the national LGBTQ+ community to fight back. I’m ready to give some money and write some postcards. Well, I might need all my money for groceries and electricity soon.

In all fairness, McMarrow has the LGBTQ+ cred from her viral legislative speech and we’ll treat her as our own. And then, it’s interesting that Buttigieg was in contention. Why is MI so gay? 😁

Just to run with this train of thought, Sen. Baldwin became the first out LGBTQ+ Senator and is from WI. WI was the first state to ban discrimination on account of sexual orientation in housing, employment and public accommodations back in 1989. MN became the first state in 1993 to do so while also including gender identity. MN then became the first state to reject a constitutional amendment banning marriage equality in 2012. IA’s record is a bit thin but they were the fourth state to legalize marriage equality. It was through court order which, lessens the vibe but it was a unanimous decision. They made a lot of blue state folks eat shit on that one with it being early 2009 just after CA just passed Prop 8 in November.
